The room was amazing, they thought of every detail, the view and privacy were unbeatable The breakfast was also amazing, great quality, choice and good service We had dinner at the Oteiza restaurant a couple of times, the food was good but I think what you pay more is the location which is spectacular. We didn't try the main restaurant but I don't think they need our feedback, their rating speaks by itself
